Nigel Dunlop, Moy Park Managing Director commented, "As part of our mission to be a world class organisation the business must develop in a sustainable way. We have implemented policies and made commitments, ranging from sustainable sourcing and waste reduction, to efficient water usage, ethics and diversity. We have 13 main production sites, employing over 10,500 people across the UK and Europe and it is important to communicate these good working practices to people inside the business as well as external stakeholders to set a good example and show that we are following through on these commitments with action." "We remain committed to investing and improving in all aspects of corporate and social responsibility. I believe everyone in Moy Park can be proud of what has been achieved so far. We look forward to building on our achievements to solidify Moy Park's reputation as a responsible business and balance social conscience with successful growth." In 2011 Moy Park plans to focus on its continued CSR commitment, developing the existing culture of continuous improvement in product, social and environmental responsibility.
